If you had reached the HW content near or at launch, the answer would have been yes, but now....
Since they put the upgrade items for law gear into the law vendor, and as mentioned, Alexander being easily farm able even in DF, no one does hunts, at all. I was looking for my B rank in Sea of Clouds yesterday, found both A's unclaimed and with no one around. All the hunt link shells are dead or dying, people just don't care enough to do hunts at the moment. When they inevitably introduce the Eso upgrade items into hunts, it will pick up again, but for now, better spam the 2 expert dungeons and your roulettes like everyone else, hunts is a dead end.
